11:50 I am British and your accent and mannerisms are very British and natural sounding, yes you have an accent but I wouldn’t say you have a very heavy Basque or Spanish accent, more like an nondescript accent of a foreign born consultant who has lived in London for years and understands the nuances of British English and the humour and slang intimately. Keep up the good work, this channel is gold! Thanks for all your effort with the videos.
Thanks. Believe it or not, I never spent more than a week in the UK. I mostly developed a British-style accent when I was preparing the CPE speaking exam.
I’ve been using duo lingo for 5 months and I feel like I’m learning a lot. Even just casually doing a lesson a day or every few days I’m making huge improvements.
"I feel like I’m learning". That's all you'll accomplish with Duolingo. It doesn't matter if 5 months or 5 years. Nobody learns to speak a language well with Duolingo. Ever.
What is your take on the Spanish proficiency tests like DELE and SIELE? I got my DELE C1 exam in 2021, I barely passed, it was extremely hard since they put in the comprensión auditiva different accents in C1. The guatemalan accent was fast imposible to understand. Would you like to make a video about these tests?
Is input ok if you're just using it to keep hearing all the vocabulary that you already know? I'm just asking this, because I don hear much Spanish in person. It does seem to take more then one or two videos, to store all my known words in my input playlist. Other then all the input stuff, I have been trying to learn Spanish thought your faster better way of doing it. Since listening is important, I might still do the input for helping with my listening too.
Yeah that's the best use for input, to review vocabulary and grammar you've already learned. Make sure those words are in example sentences, not just single words.

What I was doing for 1 year was a lot of language classes and I'm still at a beginner level in my language. I like this video and it's good
Try Language Islands + Shadowing + Retrieval Practice, it'll be a game changer.
Hey Mikel, video production is very good in this video!

@@NaturalLanguageLearning Muchas gracias
What your opinion on making mass sentenses with youtube videos? This way the audio could be authentic too.
Make them with youtube how?
When are we getting a Japanese learning update?
Soon. I'm still working on it.
Cuando eres extranjero, te mudas a un país de habla hispana y te das cuenta de que los hispanohablantes no siempre te van a hablar en español.
Exacto.
Molto molto bene grazie mille.
